Ow'Do 👋

A geek, a coder, a gamer, and soon to be Dad!

A brilliant infiltrator in the world of competent people.
But seriously interested in the pc, depending on the funds!

Boooooo! Just seen this and was like oooh interested…..wait why!? Booooo noooo!

How on earth do I miss this!? I’m a mod in the discord for blooming sake!? 😅

But this isn’t goodbye, it’s until next time! Onwards and upwards!

Just think of the people you inspired and the legacy you leave!

From the recent Jetbrains survey:

"The survey’s gender distribution shows a striking lack of diversity, with the overwhelming majority of respondents identifying as male."

If you have the means to support Larabelles, I strongly urge you to do so: larabelles.com/support-us
Larabelles
Larabelles is a community for PHP and Laravel developers under-represented due to their gender.

I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier but I'm using the Dictation feature on macOS in Keynote to provide a transcript for each slide of my talk. It works really well!

I forget the original source but this is so good. I need a little pocket version that goes in my wallet like a credit card.

Love this!

It never used to bother me so much back on Twitter, but since I've splintered, I found I'd like to keep bsky just the fun and the nerdy stuff, I have over platforms to keep informed about life, So I can see this being super useful.

Here's hoping a release of this will be here soon!

It’s all the rage now to get those ‘retro’ cameras… but wow, did that suddenly make me feel like a fossil! 😅

Okay, okay, I did it back in the day with film cameras, but I never thought I'd be the one getting hit with the ‘vintage’ vibe. Guess I’m officially ancient now! 👴

What's this, 2 (nearly 3) years later 🫠, and I've got a new blog post!? It’s about a tool I made to automate my life – GCM-Gen, which generates commit messages using AI. Still early days, but it’s coming together nicely. Check it out! 😀https://deloughry.co.uk/posts/gcm-gen-blog-post #gcmgen

I like to think this was an image of the most mind blowing tastiest beer know to any human, this was the only documented proof of it and it now lost to the ages! 😅

By popular request, here's how to add Bluesky replies as your blog's comment section!

This requires some technical know-how for now, but I'm hoping that we see some no-code solutions for this pop up soon, like Ghost or Wordpress plugins.

I needed a bit more precision when searching for Bluesky users, so I built this user search app - and ended up fleshing it out more than planned! 😅 Would delighted to hear if you find it useful.

Think I had my first anxiety wave of becoming a new parent last night! The feeling like I'm not going to be good enough hit HARD!!!

But if being a programmer has taught me, Imposter syndrome is a killer but it is not me and I can adapt! Learn and be the best farther I can be!
